Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for the Daily Signal.
Recently, at the U.S.-China summit in Beijing, Premier Xi [Jinping] mentioned that he hoped that both parties, the United States and China, could avoid the Thucydides Trap.
What did that mean? It refers to a book and an article by the well-known political scientist Graham Allison.
I learned how to pronounce Thucydides and that the “trap” is a flawed analysis.
